Solution

The correct option is A 3/4

Refractive index of water w.r.t air = 43

We know the relation,

Refractive index of water w.r.t air =Refractive index of waterRefractive index of air=43

Refractive index of air w.r.t water =Refractive index of airRefractive index of water=34

Therefore, the refractive index of air with respect to water is 34
